Supplementation of Wastewater Process Modelling Tools to Enable the Kinetic Analysis of Sewage Sludge Composting
نویسنده
چکیده
This study demonstrates mathematical description of sewage sludge composting based on identification and separate characterisation of simple process parts. For a description of the microbial processes an aSM3-based mathematical model developed for autothermal thermophilic aerobic sludge digestion is used. The oxygen mass transfer was characterized in a separate way. The 2.964·10-3 m2·d-1 value of the oxygen diffusion coefficient in the sludge at 55°C indicates the strong oxygen limitation of the microbial degradation. The model extended with the oxygen mass transfer description has been validated using results from composting experiments performed with different specific sludge-air surface areas and with the renewal of

متن کاملEffect of Composting Process on Some Chemical-Biological Properties and Heavy Metals Behavior of Municipal Sewage Sludge as Affected by Various Bulking Agents
The present study tries to investigate the effect of composting process on some properties and heavy metals status of two municipal sewage sludge (MSS) as affected by three different organic bulking agents (BAs) at three levels (10%, 25%, and 45% V/V). According to the results, the composting process could reduce the fecal coliform to class A, a reduction more obvious in treatments with BAs tha...
